## Phase 3: Visual Effects (Scanlines & Status Flickering) [checkpoint: ceb0c7d]
- [x] Task: Research how to implement a scanline overlay in ImGui (e.g., using a full-screen transparent texture or a custom draw list). 05a2b8e
- [x] Task: Implement the subtle scanline overlay (6% opacity). 05a2b8e
- [x] Task: Implement "Status Flickering" logic for active system indicators (e.g., a periodic alpha modification for specific text elements). 05a2b8e

## Phase 4: Alert Pulsing & Error States
- [ ] Task: Implement "Alert Pulsing" logic that can be triggered by application error events.
- [ ] Task: Integrate Alert Pulsing with the NERV theme (shifting borders/background to Alert Red).
- [ ] Task: Write tests to verify that an error state triggers the pulsing effect in the NERV theme.

## Phase 5: Integration & Theme Selector
- [ ] Task: Add "NERV" to the theme selection dropdown in src/gui_2.py.
- [ ] Task: Ensure that switching to the NERV theme correctly initializes all visual effects (scanlines, etc.).
- [ ] Task: Final UX verification and performance check of the NERV theme.

## Phase 6: NERV Theme Refinement (Contrast & Readability)
- [ ] Task: Fix text readability by ensuring high-contrast text on bright backgrounds (e.g., black text on orange title bars).
- [ ] Task: Adjust the NERV palette to use Data Green or Steel for standard text, reserving Orange for accents and backgrounds.
- [ ] Task: Update gui_2.py to push/pop style colors for headers if necessary to maintain readability.

## Phase 7: CRT Filter Implementation
- [ ] Task: Research and implement a more sophisticated "CRT Filter" beyond simple scanlines (e.g., adding a vignette, noise, or subtle color aberration).
- [ ] Task: Implement a "CRT Filter" toggle in the theme settings.
- [ ] Task: Integrate the new CRT filter into the gui_2.py rendering loop.
